Senserva AI Opinion for KB5002852

KB5002852 patches a single flaw (CVE-2026-45645) rated High at CVSS 7.8 across Office 2019 32-bit and 64-bit editions plus Office 365 for Mac, so both Windows and Mac Office estates are in scope. Exploitation likelihood is currently negligible with EPSS at 0%, and it is not in CISA KEV nor tied to ransomware. The cross-platform reach matters more than urgency here, since Mac Office is often overlooked in Windows-centric patch cycles.

Do this: Deploy KB5002852 to both your Windows Office 2019 machines and Mac Office 365 clients, prioritizing the Mac fleet that Windows update tooling may miss.
